I'm kind of curious- what is everyone's resting heart rates?  I wonder who has the highest and lowest.  Mine is 40-41 bpm.

Usually 40-50. Occasionally it will dip down in the low 40s.

When I was in the ER having my heart checked last year I got it down to 37 while hooked up to the monitor.

Just took it and it was 50, but do you count staring at a computer all day resting, I feel tired.

Tim - mine is usually lowest right before I go to bed. Obviously it will be higher the more active you've been, but it will also be higher right after a meal.

It's usually lowest when you are sleeping.  Then right after you wake up, assuming you don't have an alarm wake you up and scare you half to death.  I had to wear an EKG machine for 24 hours in high school and they said my sleeping rate was 41.  I think it has gotten a bit lower since then as I age, am in better shape (my out-of-shape is ~50 bpm), and am bigger.

Six months ago mine lowest mark was 43.  One month ago I was holding steady at 40.

I measure mine on mornings when I wake up without an alarm and before I get up and move, other than to reach over, grab my HRM and put it on.

Maybe we should have a RHR board too...

I am usually just right around 40, but when I wore a heart monitor trying to figure out what caused my stroke; the doctor who read the results said I was either almost dead at night or an endurance athlete - I guess while sleeping I dropped below 20!

When I can actually get my heart rate completely down, it's usually 48-50.
